In Askeaton, a five-tank system that was used. When the sewage came in, it went from one tank to another, allowing for settlement of sewage before it went back into the waterways. That has not been used in the past two years. There is a system that can help the raw sewage going in but the system has not been used.

That is why I want a representative of Irish Water to meet me in Askeaton so that we can look at and address the issue with a view to coming up with a temporary solution until the system is back in place.
